This central public open space for the city of Minneapolis is adjacent to and complements the Nicollet Mall. The ‘park plaza’ served as the model for the American urban public space. Adjacent to the Minneapolis Orchestra Hall, it is the central focus for all major downtown activities. The summer festival is conducted in the plaza and during the winter there is ice skating which has extended the seasons.
